The 9:30 PM performances, which revolve around “the dilemma of the modern mal-adjusted homosexual,” will feature personal stories and songs.

Queer Theatre Festival and The Wild Project; Rite of Water for Queer Pop-Up Museum; Justin Sayre Is Alive and Well…Writing at Ars Nova;and The Click of the Lock, a finalist for the Eugene O’Neill Festival last presented at The Players Club with Zachary Booth and Justin Vivian Bond.
